Commit in fixes line sets the DV (Direct Verbs) flow engine as default.
Newer versions of DV flow engine use the DR (Direct Rules) features.
DR is supported from RDMA Core library version rdma-core-24.0.
This cause failure to start port when using older rdma-core version,
without DR support.
This patch selects DV flow engine if rdma-core version is v24.0 or
higher. Verbs flow engine is selected otherwise.

error: too few arguments to function ‘get_user_pages_remote’

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Currently there are three versions of the 'get_user_pages_remote()'
supported, based on kernel version < 4.9, = 4.9, > 4.9.
These version based checks are not working fine with the distro kernels
which is the cause of reported build error. The error reported by the
kernel version 4.8, but it is using API defined in > 4.9.
To be able to take control of this, and possible more, related build
error, increasing the minimum supported kernel version for iova=va with
KNI to kernel version 4.9.
This leaves us with single version of the kernel API and more manageable.

As per new ABI policy [1], all of the libraries are now versioned using
one global ABI version. Stable libraries use the MAJOR.MINOR ABI
version for their shared objects, while experimental libraries
use the 0.MAJORMINOR convention for their versioning.
Experimental library versioning is managed globally. Changes in this
patch implement the necessary steps to enable that.
The CONFIG_RTE_MAJOR_ABI option was introduced to permit multiple
DPDK versions installed side by side. The problem is now addressed
through the new ABI policy, and thus can be removed.
[David] For external libraries relying on Makefile, LIBABIVER is
preserved to avoid using DPDK global ABI version.

As the result of testing it was found that some hosts have
the performance penalty imposed by required write memory barrier
after doorbell writing. Before 19.08 release there was some
heuristics to decide whether write memory barrier should be
performed. For the bursts of recommended size (or multiple)
it was supposed there were some extra ongoing packets in the
next burst and write memory barrier may be skipped (supposed
to be performed in the next burst, at least after descriptor
writing).
This patch restores that behaviour, the devargs tx_db_nc=2
must be specified to engage this performance tuning feature.

Now that KNI supports VA (with kernel versions starting 4.6.0), we can
accept IOVA as VA, but KNI must be configured for this.
Pass iova_mode when creating KNI netdevs.
So far, IOVA detection policy forced IOVA as PA when KNI is loaded,
whatever the buses IOVA requirements were.
We can now use IOVA as VA, but this comes with a cost in KNI.
When no constraint is expressed by the buses, keep the current behavior
of choosing PA.

the target system kernel; no objection has been expressed on this topic.

Use the dynamic mbuf field and flags to register the needed fields in
